TO COMMEMORATE A HERO.

RICHMOND, VA, Oct. ~ The day
opened gloomy and wet, with no change
in the condition OF the weather from that
which prevailed for three days past, and
Richmond's Dig day was ushered in with
rain, which fell steadily. Despite this,
however, the people Of the city, and many
thousands Of visitors. were early on the
streets. At ali early hour the sound of
martial music was heard in every direc-
don, and military, mounted ard atoot,
could be seen moving to their various
positions preparatory to the formation of
the procession. General G. W. Curtis
Lse, owing to his recent Illness, was
UNABLE TO PARTICIPATE
in to-dsy's ceremonies, but his brothers,
Colonel W. II. Lee, popularity
known IS Rooney Lee, and Cap
tain Robert Z. Lee, ere here.
The only other immediate members
Of the family, two daughters are at pes
eut in Europe. At a few minutes before
IL O'Clock the procession began to move
Al the head Of the line came the chief
marshal OF the Gay, General Wade Hamp-
ton, riding by the side of Governor Fitz-
hugh Lee. Then followed the Governors
staff, in brilliant uDifCrm, and the assist
nub md1SudlSs Ne4b III successive OTuSI
came the Virginia Confederate veteran
camp, the veterans of Maryland, tae vol
unteer infsntry Of Virginia and the North
carolina artillery, and then ell the va
/ rious civic organizations. The whole
made such display as has never before
been seen in Richmond. Dense crowds
packed the sidewalk along the whole
route Of march, and the enthusiasm OF
the populace was given vent to in
ALMOST INCBSsANT CHEERS.
About the time the procession reached
/ the western corporation limits, nesr the
monument grounds, 6 stesdy driz-
! zle again set in and continued,
/ so that the programme was
cut short by postponing the reading OF
the poem and the delivery of the Grafton.
! The corner stone was lsId with al the
/ impressive Masonic ceremonies. The
Grafton WAS delivered and the poem read
! this afternoon in the hall of the House OF
| Delegates. Notwithstanding the dis
agreeable weather and the mud the vast

count.

The Republican party has always
been loud-mouthed in its devotion to
the soldier, but its talk usually only
comes from the teeth out. AS an
evidence of this look at the recent
performance Of the G. o. p. at its prim-
ary election held in this county. Ell
mer Welshcimer, a one-legged soldier,
man with as good a war record as
any that ever went from this county,
who shouldered musket at sixteen
and was wearing a wooden leg at
twenty, and who must of necessity
make living at some kind of clerical
work, was knocked out of his position
by Frank Allen, assisted by the voters
Of this same Republican party" y
Ohio State Register.
There is one matter generally over
looked by our Democratic friends.
When man who spent four years in
whipping Democratic traitors goes
over to the enemy, and the Republi-
can party treats him as the common
enemy, it is not to the discredit of the
Republican party, but of the soldier
himself, in the going over. A man
may have been a proper person for
Republicans to vote for, yet may be a
decidedly improper person. That is
the point.

"a good flow Of gas was struck
here this afternoon at depth Of 297
feet in bed of limestone. When lit
it burns with great brilliancy to the
height Of ten feet"
This little extract was special dis
patch in a Cincinnati daily Of last
Friday, from Manchester Ohio. 1t is
printed here to indicate the wild craze
to which the natural gas excitement
can attain. The wells bored here
''burned with great brilliancy' to the
height of fifteen or twenty feet, but
there was scarcely enough gas to light
one residence. The flow is of no sig
nifcance whatever, and may be struck
in any deep we'll. The Manchester
well might make good post-hole, if
there is ever occasion to build a fence
across it, but as a gas we'll it don't

the explanation is scarcely sufficient
as accounting for the crime. 1t is
not strictly essential to safe trans
portation that men must get drunk
and swear, fight, and murder each
other. Here is hit of explanation
however that shows the utter weak
ness of the Devils cause. 1t is the
old saloon cry that "if you tell a man
he shall not, he will spend his last
dollar in proving to you that he will" !"
We quote paragraph:
1.-THE license on Sunday is taken
because liberty is not allowed by those
who affect to have in charge the ex-
elusive method of the championship
of order"
The explanation is, therefore, that
the people carry ON this way in order
to spite the religious people. Men
are willing that crime shall run riot,
and the reputation of the city be de-
stroyed, to prove that cranks cannot
dictate, or destroy personal liberty, in
Cincinnati!

The Waverly Watchman is moved

The Waverly Watchman is moved
to remark:
"The Jackson Standard makes a
startling announcement to the effect
that there is certain young Republi-
can lawyer in this District, who is
pulling the whisky string to secure
his nomination for Common Pleas
Judge. The Standard is certainly be
off its base badly on this matter, as it
cannot be possible that member of
the Grand Old Moral Reform Repub-
lican party would so far forget his
duty to himself, his party and his Gre
ator as to unbuckle the crupper of his
dignity and self respect and let him
self down to the level of Democrat
by affiliating with the whisky interest
to secure his nomination for so impor-
tant and dignifed an Office as Com
mon Pleas Judge. We know that
such thing was charged and proved
on the Republican candidate for
Judge in this District last fall, but the
Standard and the rest of the Republi-
can papers held up their hands and
swore that it wasn't possible for Re-
publican candidate to be guilty of
such Democratic offense," and the
voters of the district endorsed it by
something near three thousand major
ity, rnd we had about made up our
mind that perhaps these things were
so, but the startling admission of the
Standard that the Republicans of this
district had a whisky candidate for
Judge, right in the face of all this, has
completely upset US again on this
point. We hardly know now what to
say or think about this matter, but as
the Standard has promised to deliver
a short discourse before long on this
subject, we guess we will hold fire
until we see what we are going to
shoot at"
1t is lamentable fact, friend Jones,
that an isolated Republican here and
there gets down to the common DEM
ocratic level. 1t is ours to see that
the Judiciary is not dragged to that
level. We beg leave to differ with the
Watchman's declaration that it was
proven that the candidate last Fall
was fishing for the doggery influence.
It was question of veracity between
the Republican candidate and the
Democratic press-and we preferred
to believe the Republican candidate,
knowing both sides so we'll. 1t is also
fact that the declaration of the can
didate had something to do with the
three thousand majority. Put up a
man upon the platform Of running
the Bench and Bar conformity, and he
could not carry Jackson County. The
Republicans have not whisky candi-
date. Individual ambition cannot be
charged upon the party. The Repub-
licans will hardly ornament the Bench
with jug in this district.

Mr.. Hastings returned from Ironton
last week. This gentleman is actively
engaged in looking after business enter
prises for Jackson. He has assurances
that.a large foundry and machine shop
will shortly follow the completion of the
nail mill This will start an era of enter
prise here that will build up the town,
and bring into play the wonderful nat
ural resources that we have. Thousands
of tons of slack is going to waste here
that might be worked into gas and util-
lied in useful manufactures. The first
thing is to build the mill, then strike for
something greater. On the west side of
town lies a great great stretch of beau
tiful building sites, and there is an
abundance of splendid water. All manu-
featuring enterprises may find splendid
locations here. It is not necessary for
us to do any unseemly boasting. We
have the facts and the apparent adVan-
tages right here. All we ask, is an inves-
tigation of our resources.

What True Merit Will Do.

The unprecedented sale of Boschee's
German Syrup within a few years, has
astonished the world. 1t is without
doubt the safest and best remedy ever
discovered for the speedy and effectual
cure of Coughs, Colds and the severest
Lung troubles. Itacts on an entirely diff
ferent principle from the usual prescrip-
tions given by Physicians, as it does not
dry up Cough and leave the disease
still in the system, but on the parts af-
fected and leaves them in purely
healthy condition. A bottle kept in the
house for use when the diseases make
their appearance, will save doctors bills
and long spell of serious illness. A
trial will convince you of these facts. 1t

Ironton now has a pottery in full

out great deal of goods such as fruit
jars, dishes, and sewer pipe. Such an
enterprise could be made to pay in
Jackson. There is an abundance Of
raw material at hand and the work
could be done at small expense. If
Jackson goes into the manufacturing
business-and there ought to be scores

Mr.. F. D. Mussey, correspondent of

Mr.. F. d. Mussey, correspondent OF
the Commercial-Gazette, has given
some hints to that paper that have set
it to squirming in a sort of good
natured way Mussey thinks that
Cincinnati ought to have some faint
idea at least of what constitutes re-
spectacle observance of the Sabbath.
He does not believe that Sunday is a
day of that kind of recreation which
finds its chief amusement in drunken
ness and murder.
The Monday morning papers Of that
wicked city have been filled with ac-
counts of the horrible doings of the
wicked people on Sunday, and care
full perusal of these is almost enough
to make one believe that Sunday is
the Devils holiday in Cincinnati.
But here comes in the point Mr..
Mussey desires to call attention to:
There are as good people in Cinein-
natl as anywhere else earnest Chris
tian people, with the warmest regard
for the sacredness Of the Sabbath.
And these good people-embracing
thousands Of voters beginning
to tire of the disgraceful state of
things so long prevailing there. lie
Sunday is to be day of drunkenness
and crime, these good people propose
to take issue with the idea which pro-
claims it. Editorially the paper gets
off the old parrot-cry about personal
liberty "Puritanical IDEAS and so
on. The subject is one that cannot
be sneeringly dismissed, however.
Some of the 'Puritanical" people of
this country, having business invest
ments in view, are looking towards
Cincinnati in the light of the story Of
Lots movement towards Sodom.
One might go there and prosper, after
the manner of the people who make
the reputation of the city, but to find
after while that escape is very de-
sirable.
In explanation Of the sea of crime
prevailing in that city on Sunday the
paper says editorially that people
living and working in the city must
needs have one day of recreation, and
therefore they go to the country to
get fresh air, enjoy the green fields
and woods, and gather flowers. But
